[bucktail]

Wondering if you guys could help my friend out and post what is needed in buying a boat ain the states and bring it across the border.

I remember someone on the board bought a Pro V in new jersey last year for a great deal and they posted all the particualrs in bring it back.

Any help would be appreciated.

Can`t help you with info on getting it across the border but worth a look stateside, a lot of people got way in over their heads and the toys are for sale.

Looking at various outlets in the States to see whats available and the pickings seem slim for the good deals.

Seems all the good deals are snapped up by Canadian dealers and brokers, Auto Trader,Kijiji,etc.

You should be talking to Joey and Tybo.

I didn`t realize they bought their Lund in the States, I am sure there is still a bargain or two left but with dealers importing truck loads of boats the pickin`s are getting a little slimmer.

Bringing it across is easy, just make sure you have all documents in order and be prepared to prove the purchase price. You have to pay the taxes at the border. As to where to find deals, well that depends on what kind of boat you're looking for...bassboat or walleye boat.....new or used? Walleye Central is a great place for used walleye rigs and my Ranger was acquired via that website. I sold my previous Triton bassboat through BigFatBass.com. There are plenty of deals but you still have to be fair to the seller. Good luck.

Not sure if this is the link Dan put up, the link is broken when I try to read it, but I searched and found this thread that had all the info you need Darren.

 

Hope it helps:
